how can i parse JSON using Javascript

Question

I am facing some problem in parsing a json response. The problem is to extract the success message from the response below:

{
 "success": true,
 "reports": [
 { "uid": 10, "report_count": 10, "levels":1, "max_download_capacity": 10 },
 { "uid": 11, "report_count":20, "levels": 2, "max_download_capacity": 30 }
 ]
}

• Muhammad Omer Aslam: response.success will do it assuming your response is coming via response var/parameter

Use JSON.parse(JSONString).success, where JSONString is the JSON response to be parsed:

var s ='{"success":true,"reports":[{"uid":10,"report_count":10,"levels":1,"max_download_capacity":10},{"uid":11,"report_count":20,"levels":2,"max_download_capacity":30}]}'
console.log(JSON.parse(s).success);
